Access addin version information in arcobjects

MarnikBlomme

Is there a way to access the addin version information like version number and description found in the esriaddinx file in the addin itself?

I'd like to use that information as a watermark on my screens and would like to avoid having to enter the information in different places.

I just created an add-in in Visual Studio using the wizard.

It looks like the wizard created a class named ThisAddIn:

    /// <summary>
    /// A class for looking up declarative information in the associated configuration xml file (.esriaddinx).
    /// </summary>
    internal static class ThisAddIn {

The class is in the file Config.Designer.cs.

Is this what you were looking for?

Indeed, the ThisAddIn contains all the information, thanks.

You can use My.ThisAddIn, which gives you access to AddInID, Author, Company, Date, Description, IDs, Name, and Version

MsgBox(My.ThisAddIn.Description & vbNewLine & My.ThisAddIn.Version & vbNewLine & My.ThisAddIn.Author)
